		<description><![CDATA[LEAVING PUNE invites some comparisons between it and Bangalore. The eighth century Shiva temple to Pataleshvara and Parvati, hewn out of solid rock, is pretty impressive. But the traffic is worse than Bangalore, the roads narrower and the pace much different. We liked the fact we saw smiths using bellows and hammers and tongs to [...]]]></description>

We discovered a pair of socks that belonged to another guest. How do we know they belonged to another guest? He always wears bright red spotted socks. And we don&#8217;t. ♣

It&#8217;s not the screaming one that wakes me up at 5AM, but which I spotted by accident. It&#8217;s not the raptors that fly in the sky, nor is a crow. Nor for that matter is a finch.
